What a lovely room - I started to say transformation, but then I don't know hwere it started. I love the green and white (I know you are changing it, so I think it looks cool and refreshing.) The mirror is wonderful. Keep up the good work!

Hi Julie - Your house is beautiful! Lots of light, and love the French doors. You did a great job photographing it. I can see how it would be difficult to photograph with all the doorways, and bright light from sunroom.

What kind of chalk paint did you use? Was it Annie Sloan? I've been curious about that line. Read about it in the Wash Post recently. Thanks for sharing your photos!LoiTone on Tone

Hello Julie, I think your dining room is looking fabulous. We played the musical furniture game today as well. One more week of school then I am planning on starting on some projects. You are my inspiration. Bonnie

julie i just love this. i think a round table is so much less formal and relaxing. and i adore all the light that those french doors provide. it reminds me of a garden room. i so want a round table. i so want a lot of things! can't believe someone put that sideboard in the trash. you really brought it to life. xo janet

That room is so pretty - and light - for an interior room. I thought those doors were to the outside it's so light, like a Browns Conservatory in London where we used to go for tea. Love that unusual mirror and that warming rug.
